A lot of good information on organizing not only mom, but the kids too. ( )

I read A mom's Guide to home organization in exchange for honest review from US Family Guide. I wanted to read the book because I struggle with stuff. When I first moved to Texas, I had a little stuff, then when my oldest moved and my youngest was born, the stuff grew. Then, I started blogging and stuff grew more. Even though I give away things, every few months, I need to learn to not accumulate as much. I have a tiny space, called my bedroom, and it only can contain so much without going into hoarding status.

One of first tips, which stood out was work when you are doing your best. If you are a night owl, like me, the best time to work is at night or when the kids go to sleep. I also work better sitting downstairs in the front room versus the bedroom. Too many distractions in the bedroom.

She also suggest using a daily planner. I try to input everything into Google Calendar and iCal, not to mention a physical planner, but I still forget at times to enter something in .Even if I create a list of daily things to do, the plan never goes according to plan.

I started going through every bin and bucket in the room. Every piece of clothing in the closet. Everything at the top of the closet to minimize clutter. My next big task is the toy bin.

The book provides suggestions on organization. I still have a long long way to go, but hopefully I will get there.
